I need some help with a modern card.

Oh, almighty new age card gurus,

As my user name implies (or states outright), I collect Nate Colbert cards. Is there any reason that this card is worth $50.00?

2012 Golden Age Baseball 141 Nate Colbert Black Aqueous Mini 1 1 | eBay

In exchange for your sage wisdom, I offer you rum and cigar! (...and my thanks!)

(This is not my card, but it is pretty cool looking!)

Nope, just a modern day 1/1 with some hype thrown in. Seller seems to accept 50% offers. Maybe you could get it for $20-25?

Home-made cards, no thank you. Nothing is stopping the guy who makes these from turning out another 1/1 later when he needs another $50.

The card in the OP is made by Panini. It only looks like a crappy home-made custom.

The same could be said about "professional buyback" 1/1s.

That's a legit card? Wow, I think I owe the guys who make those terrible home-made 1/1s an apology.

Aren't you only supposed to be a ****** in the threads that directly deal with Leaf?

I totally thought it was one of the home made 1/1's as well, from the front it looks really cheap!! Thanks Panini!

I was pointing the gun at all manufacturers of "buybacks" -- Panini, Leaf, and Topps, assface. Leaf's corporate lips around your manhood still?

******* in a bunch much? NOT EVERYTHING ON THIS BOARD REVOLVES AROUND YOU AND YOUR OPERATION. Get over yourself, Gray.

This would be a lot easier to believe if you hadn't been so vocal about the buybacks in Memories. Any good points you've made about them have been negated by referencing them in multiple unrelated threads.

And actually, much like you, I only buy Leaf singles, not any unopened product (except for this year's Rose blasters). If BG is blowing me then he's got his lips around the wrong piece.

I can think of a few reasons. Nate only has (and I'm guessing you already know) three serial numbered cards, two of which come from this set, and both here happen to be 1/1s.

Also likely, the seller paid a lot for his box of Golden Age and did poorly, and is trying to recoup some of his investment.

So, did you buy the card? The listing is no longer active.

$50 really isn't that much money to be concerned about for many people though and isn't a lot for a 1/1, the sale is in the ballpark.

But you're definitely right about sellers in general here and could've played into the amount he chose to sell for, seems he could've asked for more though (?).

I wasn't vocal about the buybacks in Memories. I believe on two occasions before the product was released, I said "They're not buybacks. They're buys." Since the product was released, I haven't commented on it or any other Leaf product. I have plenty of opinions about the product, but I'm not sharing them on this forum. Honestly, I don't care about the company and I'm not investing any time into it. Please, I IMPLORE you, show me a thread that I commented on where I was "so vocal about the buybacks in Memories" beyond what I posted above.

And I don't buy Leaf singles.

I got no more use for this guy...
